Starting Sequence
If the control is equipped with a three-position frequency controller, a continuous signal (time adjustable via
Parameter 271) is output prior to starting the engine at the "Frequency lower" relay output. Following the expira-
tion of this time, the "Pre-glow" relay will be enabled (pre-glow time is configurable via
Parameter 267). Follow-
ing preheating, the fuel relay is enabled (
Parameter 272), followed by the crank relay. Once the firing speed
(
Parameter 275) has been exceeded, the starter disengages, and the fuel relay remains enabled by means of the
firing speed. After reaching the "f-controller: starting frequency" (
Parameter 33) and the delayed engine monitor-
ing has expired (
Parameter 274), the speed controller is enabled.
